This class is an IB English course. The paper in question is an HL essay. My topic will be on the idea if free will exists in the play “Macbeth” or not. I would like is to be drafted/written as an argumentative essay. The idea is that I believe free will doesn’t exist, and the argument would be free will does exists and why I (or the writer) believes it’s the wrong perspective. I would like to almost achieve to convince readers that my standing is correct, while proving extensive knowledge of the play. I have also seen the Roman Polanski film so that would be helpful. The minimum word count is 1500, and citations/ quotes are not included in the word count. I want the essay to be coherent and well formatted. Convincing analysis and evaluation of textual features in relation to the chosen topic as well as flow and well integrated new ideas and vocabulary.

All of Lao-tzu’s aphorisms make a claim about either how to lead people or how to live a good life. Choose one aphorism or even better, just a few lines of the aphorism that you find the most clear and compelling. Your purpose is to present your argument as to what advice the aphorism is presenting, what claim it is making, and how it is done.

Write an essay in MLA format of a minimum of 2.5 double-spaced pages in which you include the following in any order that you choose.

Introduce the author, aphorism, the issue it presents, and its claim as you interpreted it in a thesis statement.
Give a summary of what the aphorism is about.
Explain how you see this aphorism applying to modern life. Use researched studies to give examples.
Characterize the persona (the person speaking, not the poet) and his credibility and constraints. (Age, gender, intellect, experiences—create a personality profile)
Comments on the effectiveness of word choice, sounds, or images will be helpful to your argument. Talk about the way the lines are written, word choice, figurative language.
Conclude with a personal response as to why you agree or disagree and why.

Use at least ONE secondary source (in addition to the primary source which is the Tao te Ching) correctly documented with in-text citations and a works cited page.

Consider what you read in Chapter 1 about constitutions and institutions, as well as what you read in Chapter 2 about how the Articles of Confederation were a failure, followed by the challenges of passing the United States Constitution. There was enormous uncertainty at the time about whether the Constitution would be any more successful than the Articles of Confederation.
Questions
Given all of that, why do you think it is that the United States Constitution has not changed very much over the past 200 years? Based on the readings and your notes, in your scholarly opinion, what about the document makes it so resilient, especially in comparison to the Articles of Confederation that came before it?
If given the opportunity to change one thing in the Constitution today, what would you add or alter? Why? You may consider anything, including amendments. Some potential topic examples include:
How to select the president
The Second Amendment
Should judges serve for life?
Those are just a few ideas to get you started. You may choose anything you like, though. It may help to look at the actual language of the Constitution, available on page 635, as well as the Bill of Rights and further Amendments, which start on page 641 under Amendments.

Cogent reasoning is different from deductive reasoning because the premises and conclusions of cogent arguments are determined to be most likely true and to lead to conclusions that are probably true. A cogent argument is one for which there is good evidence for the premises and conclusion, and thus is considered plausible or likely.

For your initial post:
Create a cogent argument.

Explain why you think the premises are likely to be true. Explain why the conclusion is likely true as well.

Show how the conclusion can still be false even if your premises are true.

Why did the Missouri Crisis trigger threats of disunion and war? Why did the balance of free and slave states matter? What are the economic and political issues raised by having an imbalance between free and slave states?
The essays must be in MLA format. The essay should be 500 words in length, typed, 12-point Times New-Roman font, and double-spaced.
